I can give you some input about later pans, 78-79.
L82 pan had simply side scrapers and a sump baffle. One of my 4 L82s didn't even have the side scrapers. As mentioned above the L82 motor used a "windage tray" installed to the main caps.
L48 pans had a full length baffle and won't fit the L82 with the windage tray.
This is an L48 pan..........That I sold a few years ago.

Thanks to all for the responses. Engine builder wanted to add windage tray to 48 rebuild. We located flat tray and necessary studs and installed on engine. All went well until we tried to install the pan - will not fit with tray installed. As mentioned above, I thought this was a common pan shared by all 350s but it seems there are differences.
